ABSTRACT Soil degradation is a substantial threat to agricultural productivity and ecosystem service provision across Europe. However, the nature of soil varies spatial scales, with considerable regional disparities observed amongst individual member states. In Ireland, compaction represents significant threat, imposed by country's environmental conditions, inherent characteristics prevailing land management practices. Despite being widely recognised issue, this study presents first Indicative Compaction map for Ireland. The helps inform strategic practices mitigate at scales. We utilise dual indicator approach, bulk density serving as an moisture deficit trafficable days conditions. This integrated approach provides assessment association level.

Occasional mechanical intervention can help alleviate compaction symptoms in no-till systems, but its effects compared to well-established crop rotation systems are uncertain. Thus, the aim of this study was evaluate and biological chiseling soil (via millet sunn hemp cover crops) on physical properties, root development, soybean yield a long-term experiment. The treatments consisted crops rotations used spring harvest: (I) triticale (autumn–winter), (spring), (summer); (II) (III) fallow/soil (summer). Mechanical reduced bulk density penetration resistance upper 0.10 m layer by 6% 37%, respectively. However, did not extend below depth. Conversely, maintained higher surface layers deeper (0.20–0.40 m) up 27% chiseling. These also improved growth (up 71% dry mass), microporosity, total porosity. Notably, enhanced water infiltration (151 mm accumulated) basic rate (180 cm h−1), outperforming 30% 85%, Soybean highest under hemp, with an 18% increase over growing production system improve soil’s ensuring better infiltration, storage, availability for plants.

Soil compaction is an agricultural challenge with profound influence on the physical, chemical, and biological properties of soil. It causes drastic changes by increasing mechanical impedance, reducing water infiltration, gaseous exchange, activities. hinders root growth, limiting nutrient foraging abilities plants. Recent research reveals that plant roots sense soil due to higher ethylene accumulation in around tips. Ethylene orchestrates auxin abscisic acid as downstream signals regulate adaptive responses compaction. In this review, we describe inflicted ranging from cell organ scale explore latest regarding sensing response.

Soil degradation is a critical challenge to global agricultural sustainability, driven by intensive land use, unsustainable farming practices, and climate change. Conventional soil monitoring techniques often rely on invasive sampling methods, which can be labor-intensive, disruptive, limited in spatial coverage. In contrast, non-invasive geophysical techniques, particularly ground-penetrating radar, have gained attention as tools for assessing properties. However, an assessment of radar’s applications research—particularly detecting structural changes related degradation—remains undetermined. To address this issue, systematic literature review was conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items Systematic Reviews Meta-Analyses 2020 guidelines. A search across Scopus Web Science databases, well relevant articles study reference lists, up 31 December 2024. This process resulted 86 potentially studies, 24 met eligibility criteria were included final review.
